Haikus by Princetonians V 2021-2022 - Mayumi Itoh - Bog

This is the fifth bilingual anthology of original haikus written by students and alumni of Princeton University, as a result of the Haiku Writing Seminar, an independent study group of the Department of East Asian Studies, for the academic year 2021-2022. This collection includes many poignant and reflective haikus capturing the sentiments and solitude of the students, who have been coping with the adversity at home and elsewhere during the unprecedented outbreak of Covid-19. This book presents each haiku in both Japanese and English so that non-Japanese-speaking readers can fully appreciate them.
